The Higashiyama Walking Course (東山遊歩道) in Takayama, Japan
One good thing about visiting Takayama during rainy season is you can do things like the popular Higashiyama Walking Course through Temple Town (寺町) without any crowds.
I’m hoping for an unseasonably dry rainy season in Japan this summer as I will be there for a few days of it a month from now.

しょうゆソフトクリーム in 飛騨高山
Walking the streets of Takayama during rainy season can be charming.
This wasn’t the first time I saw strange ice cream flavors in Japan.

My random image of the day was this one. With the Poltergeist-looking stage, I had to do a bit of research to figure out who was even on it. Since my subsequent photos are of Enslaved, this was likely Hammerfall–a Swedish band I’m not really into. This is one of only a few photos I have from the Getaway Rock Festival that feature a fairly dark sky. I took this at 11:30 p.m.

Today’s photo comes from our trip to a forest of California Redwoods about eight months ago.

You can get some strange pictures at concerts when you slow down the shutter speed. This one was taken at 1/13 of a second. Another slow-shutter speed, concert favorite of mine can be found here.
